Well, it's just good to know that when the chips are down and things look grim you'll feed off the girl who loves you to save your own ass!

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

Darby lost her tags at the dog park this morning, as I discovered about 20 minutes later when someone called (and identified herself as "Chomper's person", which made me laugh).

I think the sentence that began "I mean, I am an actual missionary..." is possibly the best thing I have ever read.

I also find myself hoping "Chomper" is a chihuahua or something equally teensy.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

ita and some random guy.

Are you mocking my life choices? Unpack your privilege, woman.

My sister asks people about their sex lives for a living, but not straight people, so she had no help for me. She did say she'd ask her sexologist colleague about what vanilla is supposed to be.

I can't believe google was so unhelpful. Then again, the internet and vanilla sex?

Chomper is a big lumbering basset hound who wants to play with the big dogs but can't keep up, so when they all get going he stands on the sidelines and barks at them. Before I knew his name I knew him as "The Fun Police."

I'm just sayin, guys.

Also...

I have fizz!

I am out of fizz. Woes. And it is snowing, so I can't go out looking for fizz. I need to order it. I hear sometimes you can buy things on this internet thing and people will bring you the stuff.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

So I just did my nails, but couldn't decide whether I liked them better with or without glitter. So I just polled my kids.

That's a problem, right? I'm taking fashion advice from grade schoolers.

They do tend to like glitter.

The LJ DDOS attacks made the NYT: [link]

Also: Dmitri Medvedev has an LJ. Presumably is it not about, say, Winchesters.

Fascinating. I hadn't thought before about the role lj plays in Russian politics.

They do like glitter, it's true. So do I. I'm still not convinced. It kind of looks like I rolled my hands in gold dust.

My kids are obsessed with GoGos, the newest tiny, crappy plastic toy to hit the market. Has anyone else heard of them? As far as I can tell, their only redeeming value is they won't take up much storage space. Anyway, Walgreens was handing them out for free today, so at least we were able to satisfy their need for fairly cheap, the price of gas.
